This thread has left me saddened and appalled.  I have played Newcastle Grosvenor for over 12 months now, and know most of the players there.  The cash games at the Grosvenor are the best in Newcastle, and the community in the card room is more like a social club than a casino.

I can only recall one incident similar to the above where some one refused to pay the rightful winner of a pot, which resulted in him being barred from all Grosvenor Casinos.

By the detail listed in this thread I know who the supposed villian of the peice is, I have played with him most weeks and am happy that he is a genuine stand up guy.  I can not recall one instance where he has been involved in any form of controversy in relation to either cash or tournament play and find it hard to believe that he would shoot an angle such as this, I could be wrong, but I dont think so.

I am unable to identify dom from the details in the thread, therefore am unable to balance my view with my opinions on how he conducts himself. But if he plays the £1/2 game at the grosvenor, I will know him or at least know of him.

If the chips were concealed either deliberately or by accident, then the supposed villian should not be held responsible for that, if he cant see the chips how is he supposed to know what he is calling.  And if that was the case then I believe the ruling of the casino was incorrrect.

I dont bear malice to either player, but it saddens me that a fine member of our community has now been barred.

Dom... if I am doing you a diservice then Im sorry, but Im sure I will get the lowdown from other players this comming weekend. Possibly youself once I suss who you are.

Everybody in my position would of done exactly the same or more. I asked for a ruling off the management as i believed and still believe i was in the right. I have

spoken to many people in the casino who said I was well within my rights to do as i did. If this happened to any of you or anyone else in the casino, they would of

done exactly the same. I have just been on the phone to Aspers who informed me i was not banned for cheating at all and it was for my attitude towards a manager

after a decision that was made. Thank you all .

I will be at the casino this weekend Owen , so ill be happy to discuss what happened and hear other peoples opinions.

The question is did you angle shoot by hiding your chips or did the other player angle shoot by refusing to pay?Huh?

I'm sure evrybody would have asked for a management ruling but then that doesn't effect the key question above.
